Origin

It all started with Brecke....okay and had a little to do with Tiffany too. I became obsessed with Brecke from her first day on earth. You see I love babies and want to be a grandma really, really, really badly. So I forced myself into Brecke's (and Tiffany's and Kyle's) life and became a surrogate grandma. Nana and Grandma B live a couple hours away and Tiff (being a first-time, young mom) needed my expertise help. AND Brecke was so perfect and beautiful in every way I just wanted to eat her up love on her every minute. Is this getting drawn out? Thought so....

Fast forward 2010. Tiff and Kyle are adding to their family and are expecting a baby BOY at the end of May! TIFF: I need to find a doula. ME: I'll be your doula....and off I went on my usual obsessive, all-or-nothing path to find my "doula-ship". Training, training, and a little more training to go and I'll get certified.

I'd better ask Tiffany if she wants me to be her doula cause I'm really into this now!
